Chapter 41 The Mechanism of De-grafting
"Wonderful, absolutely wonderful! These dresses are different from most of the dresses on the market, but they are so eye-catching. They would definitely sell very well if they were made."
She excitedly grabbed Qiao Jingjing's hand and held it tightly. "Girl, you're my savior! Can you sell me these paintings?"
Qiao Jingjing tried to pull her hand back, but failed. "What's next, Boss Feng, after buying the artwork?"
"Of course, we recruit embroiderers and ask them to cut fabric and make clothes according to the pattern, isn't that right?" Feng Pianpian looked blank.
Qiao Jingjing said, "Yes and no. It's not wrong to hire embroiderers to make clothes, but more important is how you run the business. Forgive my bluntness, but if the Feng family's shop had the means, it wouldn't have been squeezed into its current situation."
Feng Pianpian looked angry. Although she knew it was true, she was still angry to be pointed out so bluntly to her face. However, she was more angry at Hu Qingbiao.
Feng Pianpian took a deep breath, trying to calm her anger, and asked, "Then, in your opinion, how should we manage this business?"
Seeing that her attitude had changed, Qiao Jingjing said in a gentler voice, "Is Mr. Feng planning to cooperate?"
“Why are you being so formal, calling me Boss Feng? I’m a few years older than you, you can call me sister. I agree to this cooperation,” he said, then called out to the outside, “Waiter, bring me paper and pen.”
Seeing her straightforwardness, Qiao Jingjing said, "The most important thing right now is to establish a reputation, produce the dresses, and decorate the shop. These three things can be done simultaneously. After the first batch is completed, we can hold a small fashion show and invite some well-known wealthy women from the local area to participate."
Furthermore, the store needs to break with convention; its layout must conform to my plan. Ideally, the store should have three floors: the first floor for regular styles, the second for custom-made styles, and the third for limited-edition styles. Additionally, a special area should be set up within the store to showcase our unique design concepts and craftsmanship, attracting customers' attention.
"To make garments, you must know who your main consumer group is, because different groups have different needs for products. Ordinary people focus on affordability and good quality at low prices, while wealthy people require service, and those who are even richer or more powerful emphasize displaying their status and prestige. Limited editions, as the name suggests, are one-of-a-kind in a certain style and color."
A glint of light flashed in Feng Pianpian's eyes after hearing this. She felt that Qiao Jingjing's suggestion was very feasible, and quickly asked, "Are there any other aspects that need to be paid attention to?"
After thinking for a moment, Qiao Jingjing said, "Of course, product quality is also key. We must use high-quality fabrics and embroidery threads to ensure that every garment is exquisite. You can be responsible for the embroiderer's character and skill; you know the importance of the pattern."
Feng Pianpian was excited again. Qiao Da Meizi's clothing styles and business advice delighted her.
The waiter brought paper and pen, and Feng Pianpian wrote three cooperation agreements, specifying profit sharing, before shyly speaking.
"Please don't be offended, sister. I'd like to send this third agreement to the government for official stamping in the month the shop makes a profit. I really feel bad for you, but the Feng family isn't something I can decide alone. It's just that I need to extend the stamping time. Is that alright with you?" She looked cautiously at the girl who was younger than her, afraid that she would refuse her. The few business suggestions she had just received had already benefited her greatly, and she really didn't want to lose this opportunity.
Qiao Jingjing took the agreement, examined it carefully, and nodded in agreement.
"Thank you so much for understanding, sister. I'll thank you properly once the Feng family shop reopens!" Feng Pianpian said happily.
The two then discussed some specific details and decided to begin preparations as soon as possible.
Soon after, Feng's shop was renovated according to Qiao Jingjing's design, and it was completely transformed.
The first floor features regular clothing items that are simple, practical, and affordable; the second floor offers custom-made items that emphasize personalization and can be tailored to individual customer needs; and the third floor features limited-edition items made with precious fabrics and exquisite embroidery, each piece being a unique work of art.
On its opening day, Fengjia Shop held a grand fashion show, where a group of tall young men and women, as well as children, wore the shop's clothes, attracting a lot of attention.
Qiao Jingjing's new dress design was warmly received and quickly gained market share. But that's another story. At this point, after saying goodbye to Feng Pianpian, Qiao Jingjing rode to Li the carpenter's house. To save time, the carriage was unloaded and placed at the back door of the restaurant.
The Li family father and son had been working tirelessly these past few days, especially the carpenter, Li, who, having regained his confidence, wanted to dedicate every single hour to the threshing machine. Fortunately, their efforts paid off, and the two of them finished all the parts in two and a half days. The blacksmith also finished forging the metal parts and sent them over.
When Qiao Jingjing arrived, the two were studying the assembly. It looked simple on the outside, but had many small parts inside.
Upon entering the courtyard, I heard Master Li muttering to himself, "Something's not right. It was clearly an act."
Qiao Jingjing stepped forward to take a look, "Master Li, what's wrong?"
When Li the carpenter saw it was her, he pointed to the newly assembled screening device as if it were his savior, but it wouldn't stick no matter what he did.
Qiao Jingjing carefully examined the threshing machine and noticed that one of the small parts seemed to be installed incorrectly. Pointing to the part, she said, "Master Li, I think this part is installed backwards." Carpenter Li suddenly realized what was wrong and immediately disassembled and reinstalled the part. Sure enough, after it was installed correctly, the threshing machine ran smoothly.
Carpenter Li clapped his hands excitedly, "Miss Qiao, thank you so much! If you hadn't reminded me, I don't know how long I would have been struggling." Qiao Jingjing smiled and said, "You're welcome, Master Li. This rice threshing machine is so exquisitely made. If it can operate smoothly, it will greatly improve the efficiency of rice threshing."
The three men began assembling the remaining parts, and after a while, the threshing machine was finally completed. Carpenter Li eagerly started the threshing machine, and a satisfied smile spread across his face once it was running smoothly, although he didn't yet know how well it would perform. At least the start was a success.
Looking at the scene before her, Qiao Jingjing felt a sense of accomplishment. She knew that this threshing machine would change the difficult situation of threshing grains, and this was just the beginning. Next, she would work on the traditional oil press, as it would be time to harvest peanuts soon.
To make it easier to bring back to the village, she had Mr. Li disassemble the threshing machine in front of her, then reassemble it, and then disassemble it again. The first time was a bit bumpy, but the second time she was much more skilled.
She rode to the restaurant, set up the carriage, and then hurried to Master Li's house. She should have known better than to unload the carriage; it was a waste of time.
Having successfully received all the parts, Qiao Jingjing didn't waste a moment and headed straight for Daba Village.
She was also eager to test the results.
